100% I presume, just like in vanilla.

Does magic find increase the chance of either shrines, great runes or runestones to drop? I assume not for the latter ones, but I'm not sure for the shrines.
For crafting purposes, is a kurast 3k bow better than a duncraig one? Or does the level required for best affixes cap at 99? I'm not sure how this works.


It caps at 99 so for crafting either area will be fine.

Any tips for bremmtown for bowzon? If I play too safe, I need way more time for the challenge (I clock 2 minutes at halfway to dragon boss) and I play too fast, I end up dying. I feel like my gear can't be too significantly improved, so is it the challenge just impossible for bowzon?

Are there some max "-% elemental resistance" cap you should go for? Or is it just the more the better?

Regular enemies have 35% resists on hell, and most bosses have 70.

As much as possible without sacrificing too much other form of damage. Enemies can have up to -100% resistances, so a hard cap would be 170% for bosses.

How do I exactly kill lucion? I tried to use elvensong to charm him, managed to charm him and malik's hammers hit him several times but he takes no damage? What am I missing?
